This looks awesome man. How was the install and fitment? I am about to this this DIY:



It says to torque the center screw to 46 lb ft. Do you have any suggestions for me?
There is no issue with fitment. It looks like it would have been an OEM option from factory.

I didn't bother using my torque wrench (which defeats the purposing of owning one), just brute force and mental torque.

It's a super easy swap. The toughest/most annoying part is the release pins on the airbags.

When you put the airbag back in, make sure the wiring is out of the way otherwise it'll pinch and clip them and you'll be stuck soldering them back. Happened to me when I swapped my OEM paddles to extended carbon fiber paddles.
